This felted non-slip rug underlay increases comfort and extends the life of your area rug. This rug pad is great for carpet or hard-surfaces and prevents dangerous bunching and slipping. Made from polypropylene and synthetic rubber, this long-wearing under-carpet pad works well with a wide variety of carpet styles. The generous size of this pad is ideal for all of your medium-sized rug needs. This pad weighs 27 ounces per square yard and adds a full quarter inch of padding to your carpet.

This thick material can be customized to fit both large and small rugs with just a pair of scissors. The felt material is soft so that it doesn't damage hardwood floors. Moving the padding from one area of the room to another area is easy thanks to its lightweight design.

Wasn't going to order this but the area rug I bought was such a deal that I had the extra money. It's very cushiony and holds the rug in place. It arrived in a very heavy vinyl bag all folded up. I wondered about creases poking up, but once it was placed on the floor all the folds immediately fell out and it was flat as a pancake. It gives a nice padding to the rug and I'm so glad I went ahead and ordered it.

I purchased the 8x10 Supreme Felted Dual Surface rug pad and also an 8x10 Durable Hard Surface and Carpet rug pad (which costs a little bit more than the Supreme). The main difference that I have seen was in how they were packaged. The Supreme was sent folded up in a big square, the Durable was sent rolled on a heavy cardboard tube. Both arrived in good condition, and both flattened out equally. I have had them both for about 3 weeks and really can't tell any difference between them except that the felt on the Supreme is perhaps a bit scratchier, and maybe a slight bit thicker than the Durable (which cost more). Save your pennies and get the Supreme, unless you have a desire to have an 8' heavy cardboard tube as well. ;-)

This pad is nice and thick, and it has rubber on one side to grip the floor. No complaints on its function.
Oh, but it stinks. After we unwrapped it, I put it outside for the day. When we brought it back in, the smell was still strong enough to make me nauseated. Back outside it went for another day, and still no better. We finally just put it down. Now that the rug is over it, it doesn't smell anymore, but I don't ever want to pick up that rug, because that stench cannot be anything but harmful.

Because of the heavy traffic in my family room, I needed something that would really hold my area rug in place. I have hard wood floors and the area rug was always roaming. It was a little tough to cut, but the results were impressive. The rug has not moved an inch since I put it in place over a month ago. With the extra pieces, I put them under certain areas of my sectional sofa and they have not moved a bit! I was thrilled with the results. The only negative is that is is not as cushiony as regular carpet padding, but carpet padding will not hold the rug in place at all.

This pad is 1/4-inch thick and is everything that the description says it is. I like my knowing that my rug and floor are protected. The lifetime warranty helped me pick this pad over the others. This pad has added comfort to my beautiful, expensive rug. Overstock has always delivered great products and service, and has once again exceeded my expectations.

Questions & Answers

We are looking for pads to go under new area rugs. Which do you recommend for use on polished concrete floors? Supreme felt dual surface rug pads or the Safavieh Ultra Non-Slip rug pads?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I am confused on what material this pad is made of. I do not want the pad to damage the hardwood floor. See the description on Overstock below:
Materials: 100-percent recycled synthetic fiber and all-natural rubber/latex
Can be trimmed with scissors to fit your rug
Materials: Polypropylene, synthetic rubber
Prevents bunching and slipping
Ideal for use on carpet and hard surfaces
Cushioning adds comfort
Dimensions: 8 feet wide x 10 feet long
Pad is 27 ounces per square yard and .25 inches thick

Hello mlbfan, We apologize for the confusion. The pad is constructed of 100-percent recycled synthetic fiber with an all-natural rubber/latex backing. The rubber side should be placed down against the floor to prevent slipping on smooth surfaces. Thank you for shopping with us.

Hello cp1976, we appreciate your inquiry. This rug pad shouldn't discolor hardwood floors. However, we do recommend that you occasionally re-position the pad to avoid any potential discoloration. We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us!

I have had area rugs in the past and did not put a pad, just a non-slip mesh, under the rugs and it damaged my wood floors and the backing on the rugs began to fall apart. I will never put area rugs down again without proper padding.

I had already found this product at another store, and this was WAY cheaper.

I already have one from Overstock and it is fantastic! I could even trim with my kitchen shears. Thank you!

I had a sisal rug with "rubber/latex" backing and it stuck to my engineered hardwood floor. I now have a new engineered hardwood floor and want a pad for my jute rug. What type is best? Is there such a thing as felt only and nothing else ?

What is the difference between this pad and the "Premium Dual Felted Rug Pad of the same size )http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Premium-Dual-Felted-Rug-Pad-8-x-10/5955020/product.html?searchidx=2)?

The felt side touches the rug. I like the pads but currently having my runners slip off the pads even though they have a rubberized backing touching the fiber side of the pad. I am going to try using some double sided carpet step to try to get the rugs yo stay put.

I needed a 10x16 pad...bought two 10x8s and saved a ton of money. The two pads butted up to one another perfectly. Also, the pads are easy to trim with good scissors so don't be shy about trimming if necessary.
